Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My hair keep falling out.. I don t mean a few strands I mean handfuls everyday.. the past week I ve been getting nose bleeds (I ve had more in the last week than the last 21 years of my life!!) I m getting very tired all the time and go light headed, causing my to lose my balance. Any ideas why this may be?
Well, effective treatments for some types of hair loss are available. But some hair loss is permanent. If your hair loss is caused by an underlying disease, treatment for that disease will be necessary. This may include drugs to reduce inflammation and suppress your immune system, such as prednisone. But also, 2 medications are used for treatment and include minoxidil and Finasteride. If there is no success with these then hair transplant or restoration surgery can make the most of the hair you have left.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
